Dave Latham commented on HIVE-8808:
-----------------------------------
Bumped into this problem with another input format that wrapped an hbase input
format. The wrapper did not have hbase in its name.
I've gotta ask, though: What's the purpose of caching a stateless object?
If M/R supports calling setConf as part of the instantiation system, that seems
intended to initialize state.
> HiveInputFormat caching cannot work with all input formats

> In {{HiveInputFormat}} we implement instance caching (see
> {{getInputFormatFromCache}}). In HS2, this assumes that InputFormats are
> stateless but I don't think this assumption is true, especially with regards
> to HBase.
